Legendary NFL running back, actor and social activist Jim Brown has passed away at age 87 on May 18, 2023.
He’s best known for playing fullback for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League from 1957 through 1965. Some of his achievements include 9x Pro Bowl, 8x All-Pro, 3x NFL MVP (one of which he received as a rookie in 1957), HOF All-1960s Team, and 1957 NFL rookie of the year. He was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1971. He’s considered to be the greatest running back in the history of the sport at the time of his retirement and remains one of the greatest rushers to ever play in the NFL. He sits 11th all time in rushing yards and sixth all-time in rushing touchdowns.
Brown later became an actor after retiring from professional football. Some of his notable films include The Dirty Dozen, Any Given Sunday, The Running Man, and Mars Attacks!.
